Jump Returns To Peacock Theatre

The  popular martial arts comedy Jump returns to London this week for a three-week run at the Peacock. Created by the Korean Ye Gam Theatre, the show combines the high-kicking martial art of taekwondo with acrobatics, slap-stick and comedy in a fast-paced show based around a seemingly normal family. However, they are soon revealed to possess a far from normal agility in tackling unwanted visitors.

First seen in London in 2005, the award winning show has been performed over 4,000 times in 30 cities around the world. It is unusual for successfully combining martial arts with a story and humour, plus a pick n mix of international cultures, including tango and break-dancing.
